Typewriter
The Typewriter effect is available only for Dialogue and Subtitle nodes.
This effect makes the text appear letter by letter, as if being typed in real time.
Configuration

If you often change these settings per node, it's recommended to adjust the default values in the main settings for faster workflow.
